Java

Java, an island that is often forgotten due to the rising popularity of the island of Bali. And while Bali is truly stunning, travelers skipping Java are missing out. A large and vast island filled with vibrant cities and stunning views. Start your adventure in the country’s capital of Jakarta before making your way to the cultural capital of Java, Yogyakarta.

If visiting cities is not for you, and you rather go a bit more off the beaten path, be sure to make your way to Eastern Java to find some of Indonesia’s wildest adventures. Climbing active volcanoes, swimming in refreshing waterfalls or surfing on the most remote beaches, Eastern Java is where you need to be if you are looking for an adventure.
